Bidadari Resale 2026: The Block Nobody Talks About Is Printing the Estate’s Highest Prices

Bidadari resale psf comparison — 115C Alkaff Crescent vs Bidadari Park Drive

Bidadari resale 2026 — and the data tells a very different story than the marketing. If you’ve been following Bidadari resale prices, you’ve probably heard the same story: park views, MRT proximity, young lease, schools. All true. But here’s what the brochures don’t tell you — the block quietly printing the estate’s highest psf numbers isn’t on Bidadari Park Drive at all. It’s 115C Alkaff Crescent.

I went through every single resale transaction in Bidadari from December 2024 to March 2026. Around 160 deals across Bidadari Park Drive (blocks 101A–106B) and Alkaff Crescent (115A, 115C, 118A). Here’s what jumped out.

115C Alkaff Crescent clocked 19 resale transactions in this period — the highest volume of any single block in the entire estate. And its top-end units set records the rest of the estate couldn’t touch.

The Numbers Don’t Lie — Here’s What’s Actually Happening at 115C

Let’s get straight to the data:

17 Jan 2026: 4-room, 1,044 sqft at 115C → S$1,336,000 (1,279 psf). Highest psf ever recorded in the entire Bidadari estate.

4 Oct 2025: 3-room, 764 sqft at 115C → S$930,000 (1,217 psf). Toa Payoh 3-room record at time of sale.

Dec 2025: 4-room, 1,044 sqft at 115C → S$1,320,000 (1,264 psf).

Nov 2025: Another 1,044 sqft at 115C → S$1,270,000 (1,216 psf).

Meanwhile, the bulk of Bidadari Park Drive 4-rooms are trading at S$1,000–1,150 psf. Some are breaking above that — 104A hit S$1,188,888 in Feb 2026, and a handful of 102A/102B prints have been strong — but the ceiling is consistently lower than 115C’s premium stacks.

The psf gap is real. And it’s widening at the top end.

The 72-Hour Deal That Proves the Point

This is the one that made me do a double take.

On 17 January 2026, a 1,044 sqft 4-room at 115C sold for S$1,336,000 (1,279 psf). Three days later — same block, same week — another 4-room at 115C sold for S$1,090,000 (1,088 psf). That’s a S$246,000 difference. In the same building. In the same week.

This isn’t random variance. The gap comes down to one thing: floor plan.

The Dumbbell Layout — Why Most Buyers Walk Past the Most Important Detail

Block 115C has two 4-room configurations. The standard 1,001 sqft layout is a conventional design — bedrooms grouped together, typical flow. The 1,044 sqft variant is a dumbbell layout, where the master bedroom and the common bedroom sit at opposite ends of the flat, with the living area and kitchen in the middle.

What that means practically: real cross-ventilation (wind actually moves through the flat), natural sound separation between bedrooms, and no wasted corridor space.

Same goes for the 764 sqft 3-room. While most 3-rooms in the estate are 731 sqft, the 764 sqft variant at 115C has the same dumbbell configuration. That extra 33 sqft isn’t just floor area — it’s a fundamentally better layout. And the market has priced it accordingly.

115C has exactly 48 three-room units and 48 four-room units. Only a fraction of those are the dumbbell variant. When one comes up for sale, buyers who know what they’re looking at move fast.

The 3-Room Unicorn — and Why It Keeps Breaking Records

If the 1,044 sqft dumbbell is the 4-room headline act, the 764 sqft 3-room is the underground hit nobody expected.

Dec 2024: 764 sqft 3-room at 115C → S$900,000 (1,178 psf). Set a new Toa Payoh 3-room record.

Jul 2025: Same layout → S$920,000 (1,204 psf). Record broken again.

Oct 2025: High floor → S$930,000 (1,217 psf). Record broken again.

To put this in context: 3-room flats in Toa Payoh — the broader estate that Bidadari sits under administratively — don’t usually sniff S$900k. These prints are in a different universe. And the kicker? The 731 sqft standard 3-rooms at 115C are still regularly clearing S$780k–S$863k, with psf often beating 4-rooms on Bidadari Park Drive. If you’re hunting the cheapest 3-room in Bidadari that still holds value, 115C is actually your answer — just not the dumbbell stacks. Those trade at a premium. The standard 731 sqft units at mid-floor are the value entry.

Why 115C Has a Location Advantage That Bidadari Park Drive Can’t Copy

Look at the map. Bidadari Park Drive gets the name — it literally says ‘park’ — but the street orientation means many blocks face roads or internal carpark structures. The ‘park view’ you’re paying for is often a side-facing angle or a courtyard, not Alkaff Lake.

115C sits in the southern Alkaff Crescent cluster, with high-floor lake-facing stacks getting direct unobstructed views of Alkaff Lake and Bidadari Park. That view wasn’t even fully visible when buyers first collected keys in 2020 — the 1.6km Bidadari Greenway only opened progressively from late 2021. Early buyers got lake views and a park connector spine for free. It’s all baked into the price now.

Woodleigh MRT (NE11) is a 4–6 minute walk via the park connector — roughly 320–400m. Cedar Primary sits within 1km, and Cedar Girls’ Secondary is essentially next door. For families, those two facts alone can drive the shortlisting decision.

Schools: Cedar Primary is within 1km. Cedar Girls’ Secondary is essentially next door. For families, this alone can drive shortlisting decisions.

The MOP Wave That Was Supposed to Kill Bidadari Resale 2026 Prices (But Didn’t)

When Alkaff LakeView hit its Minimum Occupation Period in December 2024, analysts were watching closely. A big batch of units hitting the market at once usually softens prices. That’s the conventional logic.

It didn’t happen here. Not at the top end.

While the estate saw a jump in transaction volume as expected, 115C’s premium dumbbell units — both 3-room and 4-room — kept printing records throughout the Bidadari resale 2026 cycle. The rest of Bidadari was flat-to-mildly-increasing. The premium stacks in 115C accelerated.

Why? Because the MOP supply wave wasn’t homogeneous. Alkaff LakeView (blocks 115A, 115C, 118A) is the only sub-project in Bidadari with a significant number of 3-room units. Alkaff Vista on Bidadari Park Drive is 4-room and 5-room only. So the demand pool for 3-rooms — families right-sizing, singles, investors — had exactly one address in Bidadari. That’s not a supply glut. That’s a constrained market.

Note: Alkaff Oasis (blocks 107–114) is a separate project and hasn’t MOP-ed yet. That’ll be the next wave to watch, probably 2026–2027.

The Part Everyone Finds Creepy (But Secretly Loves Telling People)

Bidadari was Singapore’s largest multi-faith cemetery until exhumation began in 2006. The name itself is Malay for ‘angel’ — fitting for a burial ground. The estate was literally built on old graves, with heritage features like the Bidadari Conservation Area preserving part of the cemetery’s history.

Block 115C sits near the southern end of what was the cemetery grounds. High-floor lake-facing units now look out over land that, 20 years ago, held tombstones. The angels got upgraded. Current going rate: S$930k for a 3-room with a view.

It’s morbid. It’s also a good dinner party story if you live there.

What About the Rest of Bidadari? Fair Assessment

To be clear: 115C isn’t the only block worth knowing.

118A Alkaff Crescent is solid. It also has 1,044 sqft dumbbell units and has set strong records — a Feb 2025 print of S$1,258,888 was the Toa Payoh 4-room record at the time. Consistent performer. Less headline-grabbing than 115C but arguably less volatile too.

Bidadari Park Drive 5-rooms (105A/105B/106A) are genuinely strong. The Nov 2025 print at 105B was S$1,450,000 for a 1,227 sqft 5-room. If you want size and the Park Drive address, the 5-room tier is where the value sits.

102A Bidadari Park Drive has been punching above its weight on 1,044 sqft 4-room units — multiple prints above S$1,150k in 2025. Don’t sleep on it.

The weakest performers in the data? Ground-level and low-floor units across all blocks, road-facing stacks on Park Drive, and the generic 1,001 sqft 4-rooms that don’t have a differentiated view story.

The Bottom Line on Bidadari Resale 2026

Alkaff LakeView was the first BTO launched in Bidadari — November 2015, before Alkaff Vista and long before ParkView and ParkEdge were a glint in HDB’s eye. The residents who collected keys in December 2019 and hit MOP in December 2024 are now sitting on some of the strongest HDB appreciation in Singapore over that period.

If you bought a 4-room at the 2015 BTO launch price (S$433k–S$550k), the same flat is now transacting at S$1.0M–S$1.336M. That’s roughly S$786k–S$903k gross profit in under a decade. Before grants.

If you’re a buyer in Bidadari resale 2026, the cheat code is simple: don’t chase the address. Chase the layout. Know which stack you’re getting before you make an offer. The difference between a dumbbell unit and a standard unit in the same block can be S$200k–S$250k on the eventual resale.

If you already own at 115C and you’re in a dumbbell unit at mid-to-high floor — you’re probably in a better position than you realise. Especially compared to the guy three blocks over who paid the same price in 2021 for a road-facing standard layout.

The data doesn’t care about marketing labels. It rewards the right layout, the right orientation, and the right floor. Everything else is noise.
